IDK why this is honestly. He's probably the 2nd greatest 2b of all time after Hornsby (who is in a league of his own really at 2b), he's got good career numbers relative to his peers at all positions and is nearly one of the 10 most productive players of ALL TIME!!! (I'd put him in the 11-15 range,which is elite of the elite)
I guess the fact he played for a lot of teams and perhaps didn't have a personality that was marketable or something hurts him. I have noticed that 2b seems to be the red headed stepchild of baseball too. for some odd reason.
